Local participating agencies may receive United States
department of agriculture foods or the value of entitlement through the federal
food distribution program through four categories:
1. Entitlement United States department of
agriculture foods, which are foods that local agencies are entitled to receive
under the regulation and are distributed by the state contracted warehouse and
transportation facility.
2. A
portion of United States department of agriculture food entitlements allocated
by local agencies into the department of defense fresh fruit and vegetable
program. Local agencies place orders through the department of defense fruit
and vegetable ordering and reporting system and receive deliveries from the
nationally contracted distributor.
3. A portion of their United States
department of agriculture food entitlements allocated by local agencies into
the net off invoice value pass through system. Local agencies order state
procured and approved net off invoice United States department of agriculture
food items directly from their contracted distributor.
4. Bonus United States department of
agriculture foods, which are foods offered by United States department of
agriculture and do not deduct from United States department of agriculture food
entitlement. These foods are periodic and only available if offered by the
United States department of agriculture.
The amount of United States department of agriculture food
entitlement to which local agencies are entitled is determined by 7 CFR 210 and
7 CFR 250 and the availability of the United States department of agriculture
foods.
